<span>This would be fringing reefs. These reef systems grow near to the coastline as well as around islands and large continents. They are generally separated from the shore via shallow lagoons. They are the most common type of reef system on the planet. They are similar to Barrier reefs which also grow parallel to coastlines, but barrier systems are separated by deeper and much wider lagoons.</span>
The life cycle stages of a plant would be seeds → germination→growth→maturity→pollination→fertilisation→seeds etc etc.
so I would say the life cycle stages not found in animals would be either pollination or germination.
False.
There are several good mutations that have ensured the survival of species. Typically helpful mutations help the creature adapt to its environment or protect itself from predators.
I hope this helps! :)
